Looking for a good book to read
Maybe this isn't the most exciting thread, but it's been a huge help for me to stay motivated. I just read Ryan Blair's book and also The Four Hour Workweek over the last couple months and I need another one.
Seems I get motivated and productive the most when I'm reading and keeping my brain moving. I have a lot of down time at work and could use something motivating me. I'm not really looking for anything specific but just a good business minded book to stay on track.

Read Richard Branson's AutoBiography. Ive read it several times and it gets me going ever single time. The mans a genius. You'll get alot more out of it than from Ryan Blair (he's a tool) or Tim Ferriss' books.

He is a huuuuuuggggeeee tool. The book was decent and a bit painful after about a third but I thought it would get better. Man was I wrong. The Tim Ferriss book was good. I'm a beginner in the business world so it was an easy read. Minus all the charts and tables and stuff.

Anyone who makes it in the MLM world is a scum bag. I didnt realize thats what Visalus was until I read Nothing to Lose. Tim ferriss has GREAT ideas a principles, they are just hard to implement and MOST people cant or wont ever do it.
I prefer Autobiographies of very successful people. You have to pay close attention to when and why they make decisions but the best advice I ever get from people is out of those books.
Richard Branons is "Losing My Virginity"._____________________________

Ive also read Tim ferriss' book 4 hour Body. Pretty unrealistic for the most part, but he's got some really really cool ways of doing things that help burn fat and make you strong and fitter. I like Tim ferriss

I like Tim Ferriss' in interviews. His books are incredibly light and should be taken with a grain of salt.
Read Rework by DHH and Jason Fried. It's awesome."Whatever you're thinking, think bigger." - Tony Hsieh
